A weak smile almost a grin displayed on 'Christine the second's' face for a couple of seconds before reverting to her normal expression. Next to her Eleanor sat with the words 'annoyed' and 'leave' written all over her face. Obvious sarcasm targeted directly at the two drifted from Eleanor's lips.
"Morons in and morons OUT. The door's at the end if you don't mind."
"Like they always say, 'Birds of a feather flock together'," Christine countered in a cheerful tone with her chin resting on the palm of her left hand.
"And apparently pets aren't allowed in here. Even if they are able to talk," shot back right away in a calm but sharp tone from Eleanor.
Her point has been made crystal clear. Still, she and Christine accepted her point without moving anywhere near the object of discussion, physically. A face glistening with cheekiness all over with a somewhat apologetic tone which sounded amusingly insulting attempted to bargain with Eleanor.
"Aww... I'll wash your feets~," 'Christine the second' said cruising Eleanor as she finishes the line with a seductively innocent tone of voice.
"Other areas too, I'll wash them."
Two rows below them diagonally to Eleanor's right, a redhead whose hair flowed freely in light waves glanced over in Eleanor's direction at with eyes of anger and jealousy. A chill cut through Christine and Eleanor changing their expressions for a little. While 'Christine the second's' expressions changed drastically from one of which is cheekily cheerful to another emotionlessly cold. Christine raised the question with a mildly suspicious tone, "tell me if I'm wrong but I felt a 'death glance' for a moment there..."
Doubting her six sense, Eleanor brushed it off simply, "you've been playing one too many of those games. No one besides the lecture has looked at us."
Christine looked over at 'Christine the second' from Eleanor, a little surprised and curious on her expressionless face. She rose her right hand towards 'Christine the second's' face and prodded her left cheek light with her fore finger, snapping her back into reality.
"What's there?"
Her expressions returned and displayed a light smile along with her voice as she replied in her usual cheerful tone, "nothing."
Everything returned to the way it was before the entire staring and 'death glance' started. Still prodding 'Christine the second' on the left cheek, Christine questioned once more with a much lighter and casual tone for her name.
"So really. What’s your name?"
Gently she held Christine’s hand by her fingers almost at the knuckles in between her fore finger and thumb, leading it away from her cheek and infront of her. With humble formality, 'Christine the second' kissed the back of Christine's hand lightly the way English knights did in the past to their masters. Gracing the curiosity before her with old English manners.
"Luise."
The tone in her voice brimmed with overflowing calm, gentleness but yet confident at the same time. Soft red flashed across Christine's face catching Eleanor's attention. Awkwardly she drew her hand back from Luise's grasp unknown to what lines she should utter at such moments. Next to Luise, soft snickering drifted into the two's ear bringing Christine back from her trance.
Half laughing at her friend's occasional blush, Eleanor hushed her snickering and spoke after a rather long moment.
"You look like a junior high student who just got her first confession. That is so unbefitting of you, Chris. Or should I be saying 'especially you'?"
Instantly, Christine wiped the look off her face by shutting her eyes and leaning her head more onto her palm denying Eleanor's statement. Her right hand still on the desk next to Luise's after pulling it away. Facing away, she mumbled out loud.
"Shuddup..."
"Sorry. Quite entertaining though," Luise whispered leaning forward over and pushed Christine's fringe back lightly with her left hand kissing her on the forehead.
More laughter came from Eleanor as she witnessed her acquaintance act and treated like a young child throwing a tantrum. Contradicting to what she displays more often than none. Luise's actions barely made any change for the better to the situation, bringing her sudden urge for cake and tea out into speech.
"Coffee? Feel like having some tea and cake anytime near now?"
"I suppose...," mumbled Christine still looking away from the two.
"First lesson and skipping already," Eleanor said teasingly before looking over at Christine with a silent apology from her eyes which only the two understood.
"I'll pass."
Both of them rose from their seats and made their way towards the back door. The same redhead from two rows down too, rose from her seat and headed for the back door just a little later than them, evoking Luise with feelings of assured trouble not shown on her face.
